12 - 16 October 2022: 'Go Within' - 4 Day Silent Retreat

“Silence is essential. We need silence just as much as we need air, just as much as plants need light. If our minds are crowded with words and thoughts, there is no space for us.” - Thich Nhat Hanh 

Join us for the final silent retreat of 2022 and experience 4 days of silence within the peaceful haven of Bodhi Khaya. Our silent retreats offer the opportunity for true self-observation and deep rest, gently guided, yet with the freedom to intuitively explore the landscape, both within and without.

Get quiet, go within and listen to the sounds of nature in our eco-spiritual sanctuary, while moving through an optional daily schedule of meditation, yoga flow, breathwork, Chi Kung, guided silent nature walks, evening restorative yoga, soul-nourishing mindful meals and plenty of free time for rest, renewal and reflection.

Bodhi Khaya offers up a safe space for you to delve deep within while being held by the exquisite natural environment. Give yourself permission to connect to your true inner nature through the sacred practice of silence.

 
All included (and optional):

• 3 Daily meditation sessions
• Teacher guidance and support
• Daily yoga and breathwork (flow and restorative)
• 3 Soul nourishing meals per day
• Spring water from the taps
• Complimentary tea, coffee, fruit and rusks
• Chi Kung
• Guided silent nature walks
• Time for walking and exploring
• Time for rest and renewal

Due to the silent nature of the retreat, we are offering single occupancy only. We are offering a 10% EARLY BIRD discount until 25 September 2022.

 
On Noble Silence 

The practice of Noble Silence means to refrain from all outward communication through both speaking and body language. We ask that all those who attend commit to holding this powerful silent container. None of the sessions and activities are compulsory, yet we hold the silence with the strongest integrity. Unlike some other practices of Noble Silence, reading and writing is permitted.
